That's actually more like every WWII FPS I've played.

An MMORPG would involve something like a french guy running all up ons and saying "can you give me monies? I need 2 levels" and then if you do, they just stick around as a sidekick FOREVER, as an example.
I've read that before... funny, though. :)

(It's got some historical inaccuracies! Bah! :))
Quote:Josef Stalin : has 2 frags left


Benito Mussolini :Voi Bastardo il Franco!!

General Franco : Spain has left the Axis
Sounds every bit like a Starcraft Diplomacy map - especially the "lololol Ill clear u a path".
Oh man, that was priceless.
Never seen that before. :D Excellent.

What were the inaccuracies, Falco?
It's the chat log for our worlds game of Civilization.

Man, I can't wait for Future Tech 3...
The Germans have captured Paris. 41 Gold Pieces plundered.
Quote:What were the inaccuracies, Falco?

I didn't really want to get into it because it's just a humor piece and as a result this criticism is pretty much irrelevant, but my opinion is:

They have Mussolini talking after he should have been dead, for one...

Italy surrendered to the Allies in late 1943. The Italian army wasn't much oif a factor; after that, most of the fighting was done by the Germans alone. Eventually Mussolini was captured and, after an escape attempt, Mussolini was executed by the Italians in April 1945. (remembered most of that, but checked a few facts...) They have Mussolini lose before Hitler, but he keeps talking all the way through with no mention of what actually happened next.

The other thing I'd mention is that they mostly ignore the Russian front (after Hitler's initial invasion, that is), which is where the Germans were mostly defeated; most of the lines about the battle in Europe are on the Italian, North African, or Western fronts, not the Eastern one. (Patton and Eisenhower are characters and not Zhukov? Ah...) It was the Russian advance across Eastern and Central Europe that weakened the Nazis the most, not the Western advance... I mean, both sides counted, but the troop totals on the Eastern front were many times higher, a fact that the casualty totals reflect.

... it also doesn't really talk about the Pacific theater until after it's done with the European one, which is of course silly. While the last push didn't come until after the victory in Europe, it's hardly like we waited until defeating Hitler before going after Japan. I can understand doing this one the way they did, though, because mixing the two theaters might get confusing...
Over-analyze much?
Wasn't that what I was being asked to do? :)
He's got you there Welty.

Yup... But then he gets in his wagon and starts talking like a philosopher... :)

(Calvin & Hobbes, still the best!)

Quote:Itemized list vs. Doctoral Thesis?

What good is a list if you don't explain why the items on the list are there?
Oh, well, I understand the Second World War enough that I could see a list and draw conclusions from it. :D
